The person named was refused entry to REPS on the grounds that his holding was artificially created in order to satisfy the conditions for REPS participation. Artificially creating a holding for this purpose is expressly prohibited in the terms and conditions of the scheme.

The person named appealed the decision to the Agriculture Appeals Office but his appeal was not successful. He was advised of his right of further appeal to the Office of the Ombudsman.
